West Ham are not on a bad run of form themselves, losing only one of their last 11 Premier League games. David Moyes' men are sitting in the final Champions League spot and have been playing excellent football. The Hammers recorded a 2-1 win over Tottenham last week courtesy of goals from Michail Antonio and a resurgent Jesse Lingard. However, they face the ultimate challenge today.
City are on the march in all competitions, reeling off an imperious run of 19 wins in a row. Pep Guardiola's men have taken command of the Premier League title race and begin the afternoon 10 points clear of Manchester United in second. They brushed aside Borussia Monchengladbach in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 clash during the week. City are operating at the peak of their powers.
Good afternoon and welcome to the live commentary of the Premier League clash between Manchester City and West Ham United at the Etihad Stadium.
